I guess anyone who knew
anything about great ballet,
knew at its first showing last
September that Festival's "Ro-
meo and Juliet" was an out-
standing production and would
no doubt be eligible for many
awards. Its repeat showing on
last week's production of "Fes-
tival", followed on the heels of
its winning Le Prix Rene Barth-
elemy for artistic excellence at
the International Television
Festival of Monte Carlo. The
criteria of the award was based
wholly on a production's artis-
tic merits, and it is named af-
ter Rene Barthelemy, a noted
French conductor.
The ballet production was
performed by the National Bal-
let of Canada. It was produc-
ed and directed by Norman
Campbell and starred Earl Kraul
and Veronica Tennant in the
title roles. They and the entire
production received nothing but
the highest praise for the effort
and flawless quality. One
critic wrote, "...Norman
Campbell and the National Bal-
let's director Celia Franca,
have worked together to bring
ballet to television. They
triumphed last night. Never
did the limitations of TV in-
trude...". Another added, "It
came closer than any other pro-
duction I have seen to proving
that ballet can move from the
theatre to the TV studio with
very little loss --- and indeed
a gain in some areas..".
The music was written by
Serge Prokofiev, with choreo-
graphy by England's John Cran-
ko. Orchestra conductor was
George Crum, musical director
for the National Ballet of Can-
ada. Other roles were taken by
Lawrence Adams, Yves Cousin-
eau, Jeremy Blanton, Howard
Marcus, Angela Leigh, Maralyn
Miles, and the company's artis-
tic director, Celia Franca.
The award is one of three
special prizes offered at the In-
ternational Festival. It was
presented at the Monte Carlo
award ceremony by the jury
chairman, Peter Ustinov, to a
representative of the CBC, Suz-
anne Clouthier, a former Can-
adian actress, who also happens
to be Mrs. Ustinov.

More honor to the CBC, and
this was no surprise. The gen-
ius of Beryl Fox has again been
rewarded, fur her magnificent
production, "The Mills of The
Gods", a story of the nightmare
of the Viet Yamese war. It
was seen on "Document", a
CBC presentation, last Decem-
ber. It has won the George
Polk Memorial Award as the
outstanding television documen-
tary of 1965. It was in compe-
tition with television document-
aries from throughout the world
and all networks in the United
States. The jadges praised it
as being "a sensitively express-
ed, grim record of a people
struggling to exist in a context
of total war".
The George Polk Awards are
sponsored and selected by the
department of journalism of
Long Island Illiversity. This
marks the first time in its 18
years of existence that it has
been won by a Canadian. Last
month, "The Mills of The Gods"
was telecast by the BBC in Brit-
ain; it is also being considered
for telecast h• . networks in the
U.S., Australia, and West Ger-
many. Last year Miss Fox won
five awards tor her "Summer in
Mississippi", the story of the
disappearance and murder of
three civil rbUlts workers in the
South.
The Gu.ore., Polk Award will
be presented Ta Miss Fox at a
luncheon at the Hotel Roosevelt
in New March 09th,
Too bad all c! Canada could no
he there N.' al:plaud this great
Canadian wI,o is doing so much
for her eo.J.tr, via the world

We saw th6 previews of two
proposed t 1.o dramatic series
for next ;:eao.,ti. On last Mon-
day's "Show of The Week", we
saw "I lero at I latch's Mill", the
pilot for a i ;:r-hour series dra-
matizing !leer lite in Upper
Canada in the I.800s. It was
directed by Norman Campbell
and starred Robert Christie,
Co,,:ette Lee, Diane i ellant, and
guest star Johathan White, The
series, ii it materializes, will
be called "Hatch's with
GlIri tieand Miss Lee again
st a rring.
The other series, to consist •
of ten hour-long dramas, will
he titled "Wojeck" and is the
series developing from last
week's Bob Hope Theatre pro-
duction "Tell Them the Streets
Are Dancing", The title is tak-
en from the name of the star,
Dr. Steve Wojeck, a coroner,
who was played by John Vernon..
He will continue to star in the
series for next season, and he
must think it is very promising
because he left the cast of the
Broadway hit play The Royal
I lunt of the Sun", in which
Chris Plummer is starring, to
appear in this pilot film. Shoot-
ing on the series will begin in
April; it will begin telecasting
next September and continue
for ten weeks, Ronald Weyman
will produce; the writer will be
Philip Hersch, who also wrote
last week's drama about the cor.f
oner's investigation into the
death of a construction worker.
